“The improved station is welcome here as the population continues to grow and more people recognise Ealing Southall as an amazing place to live,” Sharma said.

“Journey times and overcrowding will both be improved massively with the full opening of the Elizabeth Line, but the new station will be safer and fully accessible for the less mobile. The Punjabi connection to the area is still recognised and celebrated by the Southall Station sign.”
